What we fit in Morden
- One package. Door, leveller, shelter, bumpers and lights specified together.
- Phased refurbishment. Bays refurbished one at a time so the site keeps trading.
- Dock levellers. Hydraulic levellers chosen for your vehicle bed heights and handling equipment.
- Impact protection. Trailers are stopped and centred so they do not damage the wall, shelter or door.
- Interlocks. Linked controls stop the door closing on the leveller or the leveller deploying too early.
What this work can involve
- Phasing bay refurbishment at a cold store, one bay per weekend, so temperature-controlled loading carries on.
- Retrofitting traffic lights and door-leveller interlocks to a run of existing loading bays.
- Refurbishing bays one at a time with new sectional doors, levellers and inflatable shelters so loading continues.
What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Morden, loading bays bring together several duties: maintained work equipment under PUWER 1998, safe traffic routes under the Workplace Regulations 1992, and safe powered doors under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Dock levellers should meet BS EN 1398, and the site's risk assessment should cover vehicle creep and drive-aways.
Planning the work around your site
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.
